What's NEW to 2023 Tesla Model 3 ... and what's Missing? 

100

How much do you use those? Back, there is rear view camera... Front... You can see forward very well...

as "insane" as buying twitter for $44 billion?

e then you will say that is also insane when the camera will perform much better than USS.... never happy eh?

@@massimovergerio2151 it will be awesome when the camera can do that. However, they went on and removed a basic feature that every car on the road has today… without actually replacing it with the new software yet. They should have gone about making and testing the software first, and then removed it on new cars. As of right now, most cars are also still delivered with the old cameras, but no sensors… and we still do not know how this will affect the functionality in the future, as the new 5mp cameras should in theory work better. What we could be seeing is that all cars without USS and old cameras either needs a retrofit of the new cameras only shipping in the US for now, or will be worse than the ones who had USS before it. It seems as if they just ran out of parts, and decided to just move on to the next phase without being completely ready.

Yes, you are not missing much

you mean a Model 3? M3 is made by BMW

Might buy a 2020 model 3 long range for $40k, it has 30k miles. Thoughts? Otherwise a brand new 2023 one is $56k

@@sef9512 if it’s the long range I say go for it. The newer ones are nicer with the chrome delete and new center console but I’ve found myself to not really care. That’s a good price for the low milage that thing has. I paid a lot more then that for mine and it had about double that mileage. May not have been my smarted decision lmao but I still love the car.

@@DillonCleans its a long range with performance boost. i found one with 14k miles for 42k. im seeing 2019s go for 38k and below now so who knows if the prices will go below 35k maybe? Thank you for your quick help, its tough with youtube comment section to get replies haha

Congrats!

I really hope they bring it back pretty soon, but for now, I am using the tennis ball trick in the garage to figure out where to stop.

Real drivers dont need help parking

People have been parking cars for 100 years without technology. You can do it!

@@jonathanm8273 most teslas are probably owned by new drivers. I always see them with curb rash and driving slow af.

@@jonathanm8273 ok, Tesla fanboy.

Thanks! 😁

Yes, I just learned to live with it and enjoy the car!

Thanks for the info, but this is ridiculous from Tesla side. It’s a +$45k car! Unfortunately I had to move from LR to SR since my LR lease expires in 1 week and there’s no LR to buy. The new M3 Std coming next week as well.

Congrats, that is a good deal!

Thank you!

That is awesome!

Yup! if you find a red Tesla parked at the far end of a parking lot, that will be me! :)

Yalk can't park without park assist? That's sad

There are millions of people driving cars without any sort of collision detection and they have no issues.

@@huehuehue-x3c I don't agree. When parking a car with parking assistance, is always going to reduce risk of scratching and hitting poles. Also when driving my Tesla has pulled me across a lane due to a speeding car... these features are no longer active on Teslas with USS removed until the software has been updated. Of course there are loads of cars in the world without this. but this is a feature us Tesla users have and New users have taken away from them, so its a step backwards

They did nothing for mine. But I had a small chip in the front bumper, like really small, and they are replacing the whole thing. I don't get their logic.

Congrats! I also got the 40.4 update yesterday, cheers! :)

With 2022.40.4 software and not USS (ultrasonic captor) , park assist is now available or not ? Many thanks !

whats the 0-60/0-100 speed on the 2023 rwd?

So is there an upgraded camera?

@@bf1420 i would need to compare side by side with an older one

Thank you! I didn't drive the previous models so I can't really compare but it is more on the sporty side than comfortable one I would say.

@@MrDIYca "sporty "😅🤣😂 not comfortable at all

RS and M series are harsh rides. Comes with the territory.

@@badhairday_247 What is RS and M series?

I believe he is referring to the performance Audios and BMWs (RS4/M3)

Fremont

No, only front on mine

I know what you mean! I get a couple of apple fritters and Dunkin Donuts once a weak and about a month ago they reduced the size by 15-20% but charge the same. Some people think it's shady but hey, they're the experts!

Awesome, congrats!

whats the 0-60/0-100 speed on the 2023 rwd?

@@MarkdorsettGG I think it’s still 6.1 but idk for sure

Not really - the only comparable market where both are sold at the moment is Sweden (Prices in $'000 Kroner) - Base Model 3 = 497, LR = 587, Performance = 622 all come with batteries. The NIO (only 1 spec) without a battery = 556, with a 75kw battery = 686 with 100kw battery 796. On top of the cost of the car without a battery there is a 1800kr per month mandatory fee to rent a battery. After 16 months you have paid the same as a model 3 long range and after 5 years 77,000 kr more in car cost plus battery rental (almost 14% more over 5 years) or 99,000 kr more if I bought the car with the battery (17% more) - you will have 35% less range than the Tesla and can only DC charge max 100kw so will take at least 50% longer to charge at a 150kw + DC station. Yes there are benefits to battery swaps (battery end of life etc) but the monthly fee pays off a battery in 6 years after that you are paying more than someone with a battery. After 5 years you have paid 95% as much as someone who bought the car with the battery upfront but good luck selling for 60% of the car with a battery because they come with a 1800kr a month fee or 130k kr battery cost. Once the battery system swap is going for a few years you could drive your brand new NIO to the battery swap centre and get a 6 year old battery with reduced range and performance swapped in - it's up to NIO to determine what is still a good battery - nice feeling for a new car. The NIO with the smallest battery is 10% more than a performance model 3 - with a 0-60 in 3.1 seconds (3.3 0-100km/h) - for me at least there is no way I would chose the NIO over a performance model 3. Alternatively the model 3 LR with acceleration boost for 20k kr will give you the same real world 0-100 as the NIO but a faster 1/4 mile, 35% more range, 50% faster charging (slower than a battery swap obviously) and much better resale value. NIO customers in China have been demanding NIO let them out of their BAAS (Battery as a service) fee and let them buy a battery - NIO announced a few weeks ago they would let buyers do this - initially you had to make the choice for the life of the car - battery swaps are obviously not for everyone given there must be more than a handful of customers demanding to be able to buy a battery for NIO to give in and allow this.

Congrats!

I was wondering the same about the Chinese built model 2023 Teslas. How do they differ from 2022 or those built in Germany or Fremont?

Still manual

*No dual pan rear windows. Side cameras received a slight change, but nothing significant. No USS. Rear amber turn signals. No license plate holder. No J7172 charge adapter.*

H.264 1280 × 960 but the image quality is bad, as in, a $10 dashcam bad - ibb.co/CJrWbkq

​@@MrDIYca Thanks! It does not look "upgraded" indeed. Same old 1.3 MP camera I guess.

@@amnisakkiz6126 My guess is that its still recording at the same resolution and bitrate as the older cams, and like when they started installing the heated steering wheels and heated wipers, they'll enable the full functionality sometime down the line (not too sure tho lol)

Camera is different with my one 2021. It is definitely bigger. Maybe to wait software update or setting somewhere

@@empedance1933 I hope so!

3 = Saloon, Tesla's least expensive EV. X = Luxury SUV with futuristic gull wing doors and optional Plaid spec for overtaking boy racer Dads in Audi RS6s on the M25 at midnight. (This is a UK thang.) Y = A lower priced Model X shaped SUV with same drive chain as the 3 and regular doors. S = What you buy at the onset of middle age crisis. The older models are ageing gracefully, like their owners. Will always remain a classic. Roadster = Where dit go?? (Fastest 0 to 60 of any vehicle, once it ships that is.)

I don’t have a way to compare but they don’t look like 80kCAD car camera that is for sure

Noway to tell. Maybe I will ask the service centre next time I am in.

Yes

I don't ... but for some odd reason, I am still stuck on 2022.28.300!

Yeah the 2023 model 3 have 2 ways to open the door. The button or manual hatch also on the door panel

No the speakers don't bother me - however, I got one and installed one of these geni.us/pAIK2vN

@@MrDIYca can you type the name of this product, the link doesn't work.

Thanks, love it! No one knows lol ... I feel the whole insurance industry is a scam when it comes to coming up with numbers - monkeys on typewriters level!

Since October 2022, all the Teslas produced are 2023 Models. And you can order them everywhere in the world.

We picked one up a few days ago

It is the Long Range not available to pre order since August 3. This is is RW, Single Motor, Once in a while ., there are Long Range pre configured available on Tesla Website, check them out

@@Laszlobal I took delivery of my Model 3 Dual Motor in September! I missed it by a month! Ah man! But i wanted the long range anyway

I heard the same thing too. I don't understand why can't the service center perform a quick QA before handing over the cars!

@@MrDIYca I’m sure they do and allow for minor misalignments. It’s likely due to the China factory being so new and having all state of art equipment that cars from there have no imperfections. Fremont will get there eventually. Or at least let’s hope.

No one knows!

Did you get it from Tesla? I heard they include FSD in the price

No fog lights for RWD

They look the same to me compared to what I saw online

That gap is unacceptable nonetheless.

@@moraisgkm no it’s not, that’s the gap for where the trunk opens. How the truck opens makes sense that the gap would look like that. Otherwise it would scratch itself.

no

Fremont

No, they don't have HW 4.0

sounds about right

@@jasonfranciosa So is there an upgraded camera?

@@bf1420 No one has confirmed yet, but it looks so far like there is not. Just an upgraded housing and possibly lens.

@@jasonfranciosa Thank you for your reply, if you are sure there is an upgrade, can you please let me know. I am in Taiwan, Taiwan is about to welcome the first batch of Model y in December, I have been waiting for a long time!! Finally got it. I wonder if there are any new upgrades made in Berlin, Germany. But it is not easy to get information in Taiwan😵‍💫

It says 430km

@@MrDIYca ok

Fremont

Not for the RWD version

It’s kind of a ridiculous feature to disable on a $48K car.

thanks, I might try that

💯

If I’m paying over 50K for a car, there should not be misalignments.

I thought Germany were only making the Y presently

Germany only build the Y LR and Performance in white, black and the new colors

Neither, it is made in North America.

I didn’t like the idea of plugging and unplugging the charger everyday

@@MrDIYca you need a mobile charger on you everyday? I rarely unplug mine

yes, I get free charging at work

Yes, you are right, NEMA 1450 should stay plug in, repeated plug and unplug will loosen contact and cause higher resistance and raise heat inside

The mobile charger gets about 3 miles an hour, but the wall charger gets bout 30 miles an hour ( in the UK at least) Mobile charger plugs in a 13Amp socket, while the wall charger in hard wired to a 32amp supply

I know right!

Couldn’t agree more. What are you paying for if you still have misalignments.

4 year old car. How can it be 10 years?

Until one day they disable the ultrasonic sensors like they did with radar 😂

The new 12v battery is lighter than old . Plus aftermarket makes a lion battery too. Your battery is heavier and less reliable.

which year is yours?

@@MrDIYca we have a 2022 and my bro has a 2023

Do you see a diff on the screen between yours and his?

Actually it’s not and holds up quite well. Beauty is in eye of beholder and you’re blind.

@@alexnutcasio936 I may be blind but it’s better than being a Girly Man with a White Interior!

The New 5mpix cameras is a step forward ! They will be Much efficient than poor quality cam + sensors… when the upgrade would come…😢
